Answer

Tailwind CSS provides a powerful set of utilities for creating responsive grid layouts, allowing you to define grid columns and rows that adapt to different screen sizes using responsive prefixes.

<!-- BEGIN COPY / PASTE -->
    <div class="grid grid-cols-1 sm:grid-cols-2 md:grid-cols-3 gap-4">
      <div class="bg-blue-500 p-4">Item 1</div>
      <div class="bg-green-500 p-4">Item 2</div>
      <div class="bg-red-500 p-4">Item 3</div>
      <div class="bg-yellow-500 p-4">Item 4</div>
      <div class="bg-purple-500 p-4">Item 5</div>
      <div class="bg-pink-500 p-4">Item 6</div>
    </div>
    <!-- END COPY / PASTE -->

Additional Comment:

The "grid" class initializes a CSS grid container.
"grid-cols-1", "sm:grid-cols-2", and "md:grid-cols-3" set the number of columns for different screen sizes (mobile-first).
"gap-4" adds spacing between grid items.
Responsive prefixes like "sm:" and "md:" apply styles at specific breakpoints.
